AJAX and Rails

Ruby
on Rails has certainly played a role in delivering Rich Web Applications which
take full advantage of AJAX.
In this session, delegates will learn how Ruby on Rails empowers developers to
create rich interfaces without writing any JavaScript.

This talk
will:

Give an introduction to how Ruby on Rails
integrates the Prototype and Script.aculo.us JavaScript libraries

Show how Rails developers write Ruby code which
generates JavaScript on the fly

Reveal how Ruby encourages best practices by degrading
gracefully when a browser has JavaScript disabled.

Bio:
Gregg Pollack lives in Orlando,
Florida where he runs the Orlando Ruby Users Group, writes on his blog Rails Envy, and is always hunting for more

RIAs, Rich Web Technologies, and AJAX
March 18-20, 2008, New York CityAJAXWorld Conference & Expo 2008
will provide delegates with the optimum balance between RIAs, Rich Web
Technologies and AJAX, while underlining business needs, technology potential,
and enhanced user experience.

This year at AJAXWorld the
relentless focus is not only on where RIAs are now but also where Rich Web
Technologies are headed, where Enterprise Web 2.0 and Social Applications are
taking the software development industry and the end user, and how Rich Web Technologies
are transforming our businesses and our lives.

Delegates will learn how RIAs
are making money and gaining market-share for some of the leading businesses in
the world.

The real-world questions that will be answered by this year's 140+ sessions are
those that currently preoccupy working developers, architects, IT managers and
business line managers. The 2008 tracks include:

Ever since Google popularized a smarter, more responsive and interactive Web experience by using AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript + XML) for its Google Maps & Gmail applications, SYS-CON's RIA News Desk has been covering every aspect of Rich Internet Applications and those creating and deploying them.

It cannot be overseen or regulated by any one administrator, like a government or bank. Currently, there is no government regulation on them which also means there is no government safeguards over them. Although many are looking at Bitcoin to put money into, it would be wise to proceed with caution. Regular central banks are watching it and deciding whether or not to make them illegal (Criminalize them) and therefore make them worthless and eliminate them as competition. ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings) are something most have no idea as to what it means and how you utilize it. Where is the "Stamp of Approval" or "Stamp of Legitimacy" on some of these Bitcoin websites (how do you know you are not dealing with a scammer?)
